No we won't. He's the worst quarterback, by FAR, that we will face this year. Like he is significantly worse than the Grambling quarterback. He's terrible.

We’re not scoring 50 against them. Let’s just let that one go with the wind.

35-23 LSU
Close early but we pull away late. Defense gets a few key stops and we get some momentum on that side of the ball finally

I feel really good about this game. Styles make fights. Their style suits us.

If we can just slow down their run game, they won’t be able to score any points.

See their game against A&M. They can’t throw the ball. This could be our best defensive game of the year.

Thats a big "despite". Sometimes looks can be deceiving. They are not 10th in scoring and 8th in yards against FCS schools.

We have the worst D in program history, every game we play will be uncomfortably close.

It will be close. But not because of Auburn’s defense. It will be because LSU is the worst defense Auburn will have faced all season.

They are coming off a bye and Freeze is a good play caller/play designer. LSU can’t figure out where to line up and where to be against basic plays. Freeze will have several that completely confuse them. Even a bad QB can hit a handful of those. Combine that with the fact LSU can’t tackle and it’s hard to see Auburn not getting at least 30 points. That ultimately may not be enough, but I don’t think LSU can shut down even a bad offense at this point.

I agree- uncomfortably, frustratingly close- like it was against Mizzou. Except maybe not quite as high scoring. Our defense will be an elixir for their offensive woes, you better believe it!

Auburn will try to run the ball and they will struggle

LSU will jump out to a sizable lead

Auburn will continue to try to run the ball until they cant any more

noAuburn passing game means no balance and LSU defense turns in their best performance of the year

Every game gear on out will be uncomfortably close. We can’t stop a nose bleed.

It could happen that way but I think Mizzou had a pretty good defense. Obviously Arkansas did as well. What I think is that we will not score 50 but 31 could be enough this time.

31-28 LSU. I think it’s really close.

If we can hold them to under 41 or so we'll have a decent chance.

That's a big if.

All he has to do is hand off the ball and their RBs will find gaping holes to drive a truck through!!

Auburn defense is pretty good, but offense does not have a QB to expose LSU secondary.

If we can hold their offense to <40, we’ll be just fine.
